driveshaft install

RE: driveshaft install
When I did my install I used a12mm 12pt.boxend wrench w/ the handle off the floor jack for leverage and that went well for me.
Oh if you have any viberation after install, unbolt the d/s and rotate flange thenbolt up and test drive again. Good luck.

i have a very slight vibe over 80, but i replaced the pinion flange so how could i get it indexed with the trans flange?

i know for sure it'll come off easily with a harmonic balance puller, if you can get ahold of that, you'll be all set. if this is a four inch driveshaft, don't forget the relocate the e brake cable...and while you have the shaft out, it would probably pay to massage the floor board where that cross member is that's tacked to the floor board about half way back. i need to take mine back out and massage the cross member a little bit. it rubs occasionly just enough to put a little shine on the driveshaft
unless of course your car isn't lowered

RE: driveshaft install
yeah, it is finished and pulls significantly harder...only problem is when i decelerate, it whines and gets worse the lower the RPM's go....
i am not sure if this is being caused by the e-brake cable relocation, losing too much gear oil, or the need to rotate the driveshaft...
